Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
Although there are some traditional classes in this UC, in most sessions the teacher will take a less active role - in particular, in journal club sessions or discussions after the seminars the teacher will preferably take on a moderating role in the discussion, encouraging student participation but not imposing your vision. The presentation by students of their dissertation proposal will be the main exponent of this approach.
It appears that similar models, including "flipped classroom" moments, increase student participation and knowledge retention.
